I go by the name XP and I have a new song called Mushindi, it goes by this. Ibilisari ni banda, alipuigi ya wangu yung bani. Ugunjoa kani fanya, nanyu kweli usi utani. Mola wangu sikumkana, japuchungu lini jammi. Kupiti ya marafiki, guvumu mungu alini pami. It's new on YouTube. Wow, nice, nice. Obizi bo. Yes, you can answer now. Obizi, umekuwa wapi all this time. You know now the world is awaiting umekuwa wapi. Who is Obizi? Yes, what you up to in today's ministry side? Obizi is a gospel artist. Obizi is a saved Christian. Obizi is a young man who loves God. He loves spreading his ministry. So all this while, I've been there, but I was doing trap before. But I decided let me take some time and figure out nata kani fanya John Tragani. I didn't know that I was a Zahimba. So I decided... I didn't know that I was a Zahimba. I was a rap singer. How long have you been there? I've been there for three years. But professionally, from this song duty, it has surprised me. God has been good. Yes, it seems to me, it dropped up. People have been loving or need manzee. Now I receive and I request. And you are glad to come up with you. We have been interacting with each other. Yes, I laugh when I hear Zanda music. Yes, when I hear Zanda, then there is music. Tell us about your name. And of course, people have been loving on your songs, your voice. Naku liza. Mkenya wu you. You know. Also you tell us when you are in your music. Zanda is basically a 20-year-old who loves God. Actually my voice, I just feel like nisi po patiya God na juli zanganda patiya nani. Because he is the one who gave it to me. I never used to sing like this. You pray, you just sing and then 12 years old. Boom. Why do you sound so odd? Until people are telling me, when I joined school, I was like, weata mo lima kikuskiz, I think kutashiki wu fkuzui. You can imagine how many people are getting into recording. Actually it was my cousin. He was in Nairobi. He was working here as a video director. It's not so big, but he had my voice and he was like, what are you doing here? Do something. So that's how I started in 2017. And then I reintroduced myself as Zanda Music from Zanda Haps. And then now that's when Moto came in Pilo, Munguyupo and relaxed by Kristina Shisha. So Zanda, it's your real name? No. Tell us, Zanda ina manisha nini bas. Which is an artistic name? Zanda it was Zanda Haps. Actually honestly I went to Google. I looked for names. I wanted something fresh, something I could relate with uniqueness. Then I chose Zanda. Then Haps, I figured since David played the harp for soul and demons chased away, I was like, let me choose Zanda Haps. But then the reintroduction to make things simpler because people were saying Zanda Haps was too complicated. I just changed it to Zanda Music. And people have been relating with you. How to and as how that way in Kenya and because of that voice. And we love you and we love your music and God bless you, Zanda. Xp. Yes, Najwa since to reintroduce you. Muzikiya kikiwa hote niwa apaivi. Watu amekua pia waki request. Now watu amekua waki uleza. Xp, Xp, Xp. Now you're here. Feeling ikwa aji kwanza? Niku puwa na feeling ikwa strong. Tumi Xp li come up. Aji and how long have you been there. Na pia. Umerekodonga api sofa. Amotu ameera jani mikua pia. Ya, I go by the name Xp. And I'm saved. I'm 24 years. And I love Jesus. He's my savior. Yes. Xp is just a stage name. Nili. Nili tangi neza two stage name. Nili neza jita as a public life. Ya, so nika jita Xp. Okay, na how umshini the song. Niku mikui ki receive you are just scenes ule drop? Niku mikui ki receive you are poor. Actually from fans. Na shikurusana. Kwa support. I never thought it either funny when you met Fanya right now. So I feel so blessed. And I feel so happy. Okay, sa tuki ndelia on that. Coming back to the other. Your friends and your panellists. Na juna feel ni kama na mekua modulatora apa. I'm excited because ya ni kwa hostu na me feel. Tumi Xp li we are privileged to have you. And thank you for gracing our show. Na ni neza kuliza as a new artist or a fresh artist mone sa iuna skuma yo new projects. What has been the challenges then you na jua specifically easy untu waka asha fika haiziku ana experience. Because kuna zile zina cut across but wuna neza tumbe individually like before you releasing your new music and of course ki ndelia kuhi push and in the ministry challenges gani wa kuki pattern anazo. Okay, there is a lot of challenges actually as an upcoming artist because one thing ni marketing. Yes. Maybe you alone you don't have management so ni stress kwa market song. So maybe wuna pelaika kwa station zingine those guys wana kwa bia your video is very low quality so we can't play this and sometimes you call them they don't pick up the phone. So you have to struggle. So transema tu ni god too and I push too inna. Inna kumalikana fans inna fika place hati they spin Dr. Leo anasema Xp inna fahu kuhi waka sure. And I chase her. All of these tell artist nasemanga what is born of the spirit was born by God. Of course God ni yata maintain ni yata you push. So I encourage artists waka kati wananda kurekulia songs. Do it on the basis of God that God aki jua nas kuma yu proji wuki skuma wana jua God inyama ni yung nasema this is my project I'll push it. And zando niza toambia tooki like for those new artists who are there and they are eagerly waiting for the breakthrough. How would you tell them what would you tell them considering now you've been there it's like it's your breakthrough because umepata umepanya new me a colabo there and there is another music that is being pushed by your friends na watupia wana kusapot how has it been the challenges before you met some people and where is the uniza toambia how you recorded your song also. Well you enter it's not easy you'll be fooled you get tricks you find odd people but then if you forget that I just want to make a hit I want to sing for God and then you forget it's God who's going to give you someone you're going to end up lost for years like honestly I did moto surprisingly I walked with both it was because I didn't enter the music industry thinking you know I started music earlier on and it was messed up I quit I just told God I was going to miss Taki and then I admit some very wrong people then one time I'm somewhere meeting a friend and then this random guy is like are you kidding me I'm being told you sing from another person then you're like God I was just saying by the way help me I was serious God listens to your prayers very finely like you have to put God first it's not the song that I'm releasing it's a hit song don't do a song because it's a hit song sing because you're doing it for God then God will give you that song you're looking for wow awesome so what to ask here you know those new artists who when you want to attack could release hits they are up to releasing hits and you know God is the one who making your song to be a hit just dedicate it to him and of course pray that God will connect you to the right people you and your advice to me to me apart from her experience so Obizi transition ya kutuka trap kwingia into what do we call this this idea the type of music like duty Afro Obizi Afro Obizi so ok to same here Afro Obizi how has it been any kutransit na kusama unatakasa watu wa kuchukule in another way considering that kujafika pala mainstream ati watu wa takubali tu yes how was it first I released a song last day ikunitope perusha it was a trap song so me me when I was releasing it like I decided to take a risk jwa kunam say na hile trap hile trap hard kabisa so I didn't release I was like risking it like but me kama let me just release the project but the project kufanya vini nili kwa na expect kusata in times of airplay badu nili strago yes but no man ni kabidi ni I go back I think about what I want to do unatakasa watu wa takasa so I had to figure out what people want plus I also talked to God and I asked God I have released this trap song like imekuangumu kuskuma kuna pigamasimu watu wa wa shiki na tumalinks ma blue tix too na kambia mungu ya mungu just show me the way yes and then God talked to me and he gave me a duty wow na imeku ekipa fomvizi imeku ekipa fomvizi tell us how do you come up with your lyrics like how you record how you write your songs actually the song duty to learn my boy it was days and time on big up and then he told me actually I read songs I read songs according to my to daily daily basic lifestyle same so I also came up with a song in Aguziya Kenyemse na piti ya kwa life now of course mihanzanawe that ni kitupi ya me na piti ya kwa life zanda you can tell us how you come how you came up like impilo impilo tell us about the title of the song and how you came up with that concept of the whole day impilo was I remember we were in Mombasa with my family and I was just seated and I'm just like singing randomly doing karaoke then I something just comes mihaka kumina bitli you know and you end up singing a whole verse but then you don't know what God is actually wanting you to sing and then you just continue singing impilo you're like what is impilo God what are you talking about you're just like fine you want me to sing this when you end up singing there were two completely different songs by the way then I went to the studio Seville is guiding me you know I like working with people and learning you can never know what God can tell you through someone so it's just like it was actually I want to thank you and then God is like I don't get the impilo up on Danny then I was like impilo and then I remembered by Zahara it's called impilo and then when I checked it's health at that time I had done a surgery my dad was going to receive another surgery so I was like God I really need to be healthy I want to know that I'm safe I'm okay and stuff and then it's like singing impilo and then that's how it came impilo and then people were like what is impilo it's like health I'm telling you I just felt so good actually we pray that through what inspired you to come up up with that impilo it's about healing it will reach to people na ita wa ponya like literally mutwa na skida song na honestly it has been blessing me the entire week and your music because mimi kwa niki look forward so I've been playing your music like ni hits kwa maskia hangu by the way nimi kwa excited sana to host you guys so XP how you come up also with your lyrics kama ina nika na mitu mwingina pia na pia your recording sessions when you zina kwa nga how you kifanya recording zako like especially for the song machine first of all my song is a testimony eni nimi piti atru last year at 2016 December I was diagnosed with a cancer tumor on my left jaw so I was in Kenyatta for like for like three weeks and it was a hard situation for me I've never been in such a situation so let's say God is a winner because I came out as a winner and that's why I wrote this song actually it was written by Bensi Big up Bensi for Big up Big up for that and for me my song is a testimony I came as a winner so that's why it's called machine wow and now coming back to our theme of the day yosuri being new and being fresh how unera sama like obizu unera sama watua meku receive aje like how have you been received as a person in the industry we've been doing ministry but
